From ocean-view properties to tucked-away canyon homes, we craft custom waterfalls that enhance the natural beauty of your landscape and reflect Malibu’s relaxed elegance.
Pondless Waterfalls F.A.Q.
Can these be installed in Malibu’s coastal or hillside homes?
Yes. Whether you’re working with a sloped yard in the canyons or a flat beachfront garden, pondless waterfalls are highly adaptable. We design each system to complement the unique layout of your property.
Are they safe for kids and pets?
Absolutely. With no open pond, there’s no standing water to pose a safety risk. Water disappears into a hidden underground basin, and all stones are secured to prevent movement.
Where does the water go?
The water flows over natural stone, disappears into a gravel-lined basin, and recirculates quietly through a concealed pump system. This closed-loop cycle maintains continuous flow without visible storage.
Low Maintenance
Pondless waterfalls are among the lowest-maintenance water features available. You won’t need to clean debris, manage algae, or care for aquatic life, just basic upkeep a few times a year.
Pondless Installation in Malibu
With nearly two decades of experience, California Waterscapes brings expert design and installation to every Malibu project. Our team specializes in integrating pondless waterfalls into upscale coastal and hillside environments, using natural stone and eco-conscious materials.
The process includes digging an underground reservoir, installing a water pump, and arranging hand-selected stones to form a flowing, naturalistic waterfall. Once complete, the system runs silently and efficiently, offering the ambiance of a mountain stream, right at home by the sea.
Most installations are completed in just a few days, with full attention to quality, cleanliness, and landscape preservation.
